Sinossi
One of the first Swiss performance artists, Manon has fashioned a career for herself out of the identities of others. Whether exploring the limits of gender or the beauty of decay, Manon&;through her personas, installations, and performance pieces&;continually foregrounds the instability of place and self. Her most recent project, She Was Once MISS RIMINI, is one of her most brutal and touching. Here, she literally depicts imagined futures for an aging beauty queen. 
Each exquisite image in this pictorial essay teases out the possible paths Miss Rimini&;an alter-ego for Manon who &;happened&; upon a beauty pageant in the early 1970s and walked away with the crown&;could have taken. A small-town diva? A hypersensitive viola player? Perhaps even a psychiatric patient? 
She Was Once MISS RIMINI is a trenchant meditation on the art, or artifice, of growing older. Costume, lipstick, lighting, attitude&;all aspects of self-presentation are in concert here with quiet critiques of social and economic systems that limit the options of older women. Accompanied by an enlightening introduction by art theorist Brigitte Ulmer, She Was Once MISS RIMINI is the first and only documentation of Miss Rimini and one of the first books in English on Manon.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Ebenso verführerisch wie kritisch befragt die Performance- und Installationskünstlerin Manon (\*1946) die Konstruktion von Identität und Biografie. In ihren Fotoserien treibt sie ein schillerndes Spiel mit Rollen- und Geschlechterbildern. In She Was Once MISS RIMINI phantasiert sie nun folgende Geschichte: In den 1970er-Jahren fährt eine nette junge Frau in die Ferien nach Rimini und nimmt an einem Schönheitswettbewerb teil. Sie wird tatsächlich Miss Rimini, bekommt Schleife, Krönchen und kurzen Glanz. Doch jetzt: Was ist aus ihr geworden Lebt sie noch In Monte Carlo, in Berlin oder in Rorschach Hat sie geheiratet, Karriere als Schauspielerin gemacht, ein Nagelstudio eröffnet oder liegt sie im Spital Über fünfzig Mal zeigt sich Manon in neuem Gewand und spekuliert, wie das Leben der Miss Rimini hätte weitergehen können. Die Porträts, 2002/03 in Paris und Zürich fotografiert, zeigen spannende, freudlose, heitere oder schwierige Frauenleben: als Heilsarmee-Salutistin, Fotoreporterin, Violinistin oder Bag-Lady, Vamp oder Psychiatriepatientin. Wie finden wir unsere Identität Wie glückt ein Leben Manons Fotoserie wirft viele Fragen auf. «Manon steht für die Verschmelzung von Kunst und Leben, für exzessiven Subjektivismus, für das Spiel mit Bildern und Projektionen. Sie hat den Humus mitgeschaffen, auf dem Künstlerinnen wie Pipilotti Rist und Sylvie Fleury arbeiten.» Brigitte Ulmer. Codice articolo 9783858817006
